\par
Here are the effects of the rear wheel entering a pool of standing water. The track is polished concrete but not dead flat and many parts hold deeper water.\par
\par
The two front tyres pass astride the deeper pool and the rear tyre strikes the pool and instantly looses traction and skates sideways. The ASC automatically opposite locks the front wheels and the vehicle is maintained in a safe attitude.\par
\par
Here there is a combination of effects.\par
\par
1] the tyre can't cut through the water.\par
2] the tyre experiences a " bump" that finally accellerates the contact patch clear of the road surface.\par
\par
Video will be aimed at the problem area to show you how we progress this problem to a solution.... yes, we know we can solve it!\par
\par
Play video on slow speed to allow better observations. .\par
